PHOENIX -- The mother of a teenage victim in a murder-suicide is raising money for her daughter's funeral.

On Friday, March 7, Anastasia (Ana) Greer, 16, was shot dead by her friend Matthew Bolton, 15, after trying to protect Bolton's ex-girlfriend. Both were students at Sandra Day O'Connor High School.

"She was about truth, honesty and love and she loved life," Diannah Dinsmoor, Greer's mother, told News/Talk 92.3 KTAR's Mac & Gaydos on Monday. "From the day that she was born, she was forthcoming and affectionate and loving and everybody fell in love with her form the moment they met her."

Dinsmoor is attempting to raise $13,000 to cover the cost of her daughter's funeral. Greer was born in California and Dinsmoor plans on having the funeral there.

"Hands Across Anthem is the one that has been doing the fundraisers to help take care of expenses and they've been incredibly amazing," Dinsmoor said.
